Product details
Overview
ISL9111EH33Z-T from Intersil is a low-input-voltage, high-efficiency synchronous boost converter with integrated 1A N- and P-channel MOSFETs, delivering fixed 3.3V output from single/dual-cell alkaline/NiMH batteries. It starts up at 0.8V, operates down to 0.7V (UVLO enabled), achieves up to 97% efficiency at 3.3V/100mA (VIN=0.9V), and uses a 1.2MHz switching frequency to enable compact 4.7µH inductor + ceramic capacitor designs for portable medical and audio devices.
For engineers reviewing the ISL9111EH33Z-T datasheet, ISL9111EH33Z-T pinout, ISL9111EH33Z-T application, or ISL9111EH33Z-T equivalent, key selection criteria include minimum startup voltage (0.8V), UVLO protection threshold (0.7V), 3.3V ±100mV output accuracy, 20µA quiescent current in skip mode, and fault reporting via dedicated FAULT pin - all critical for battery life and system reliability in space-constrained, low-power embedded systems.
Technical Context
The ISL9111EH33Z-T implements peak current-mode PWM control with internal compensation and a 1.2MHz oscillator, enabling stable regulation across wide input ranges (0.8V–VOUT−200mV). Its synchronous rectification replaces lossy Schottky diodes with low-rDS(ON) MOSFETs (0.2Ω N-ch / 0.35Ω P-ch), minimizing conduction loss.
Under light load, it enters skip mode-triggered after eight consecutive zero-current crossings-reducing switching activity while maintaining regulation and cutting quiescent current to 20µA. Output disconnect during shutdown prevents battery drain, and UVLO (0.7V threshold) protects rechargeable cells from over-discharge.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Output Voltage | Fixed 3.3V ±100mV - ensures stable rail for 3.3V logic, USB-OTG PHY, and Bluetooth baseband ICs without external feedback resistors. |
| Startup Voltage | 0.8V typical - enables operation from deeply discharged single-cell alkaline/NiMH batteries, extending usable runtime. |
| UVLO Threshold | 0.7V - shuts down before rechargeable battery over-discharge, preserving cycle life and safety. |
| Quiescent Current | 20µA typical in skip mode - minimizes no-load battery drain in always-on portable devices like wireless headsets. |
| Switching Frequency | 1.2MHz (1.0–1.4MHz range) - allows use of tiny 4.7µH inductors and low-ESR ceramic capacitors, reducing solution footprint by >40% vs. 500kHz converters. |
| Peak Switch Current | 1.0A typical - supports up to 240mA output at 3.3V from dual-cell input (VIN=1.8V), sufficient for MP3 players and medical sensors. |
| Fault Protection | OVP not applicable (fixed version); OTP (150°C), short-circuit, and low-VIN shutdown - provides robust field reliability without external supervision circuitry. |
Pinout & Package
ISL9111EH33Z-T is housed in a Pb-free 6-lead SOT-23 package (JEDEC MO-178AB, pkg drawing P6.064), optimized for thermal performance (θJA = 146°C/W) and board-level reflow compatibility.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - SW | Switching node | Connects to inductor's switch-side terminal; carries high di/dt current - requires short, wide trace to minimize EMI and voltage spikes. |
| 2 - GND | Power ground | Primary return path for input/output capacitors and MOSFET sources - must tie directly to solid ground plane to ensure stability and noise immunity. |
| 3 - EN | Enable input | Active-high logic control (0.8×VIN high, 0.2×VIN low); pulls device into <1µA shutdown state when low, enabling system-level power gating. |
| 4 - FAULT | Fault open-drain output | Sinks current when low during UVLO, short-circuit, or thermal fault - connects to MCU GPIO for real-time health monitoring and graceful shutdown. |
| 5 - VOUT | Regulated output | 3.3V power rail; supplies downstream logic, RF transceivers, or sensors - requires local 4.7µF ceramic capacitor placed adjacent to pin. |
| 6 - VIN | Input supply | Accepts 0.8V–VOUT−200mV; connects to battery or DC source with 4.7µF ceramic capacitor to suppress ripple and support peak current demands. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Synchronous boost architecture | Integrated 0.2Ω N-ch and 0.35Ω P-ch MOSFETs eliminate Schottky losses, enabling >90% efficiency at light loads and eliminating need for external rectifier. |
| UVLO with 0.7V threshold | Prevents deep discharge of Li-ion, NiMH, or NiCd batteries - extends battery cycle life and avoids irreversible capacity loss in rechargeable systems. |
| Dedicated FAULT pin | Open-drain output signals UVLO, short-circuit, or thermal events - enables firmware-driven fault recovery without external comparators or supervisors. |
| Output disconnect in shutdown | Zero leakage path between VIN and VOUT when EN = low - eliminates standby battery drain, critical for shelf-life-sensitive medical and remote-sensor applications. |
| 1.2MHz fixed-frequency PWM | Enables consistent EMI profile and predictable filter design; supports ultra-compact magnetics (e.g., Sumida CDRH2D18/HPNP) and X5R ceramics (AVX/Murata). |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar synchronous boost converter applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TPS61200DRCT | 0.3V startup, no UVLO, 3.3V ±2%, 1.15MHz, 0.9A switch - lacks FAULT pin and output disconnect. | Better for non-rechargeable primary cells; unsuitable where battery protection or fault logging is required. | Choose TPS61200DRCT only if lowest possible startup voltage is critical and UVLO/FAULT are unnecessary. |
| MAX8815AETE+T | 0.7V startup, UVLO at 0.6V, 3.3V ±1.5%, 1MHz, 1.2A switch - includes thermal foldback but no FAULT pin. | Higher current capability suits higher-power peripherals; missing FAULT limits system diagnostics in medical/industrial use. | Select MAX8815AETE+T when >240mA output is needed and fault signaling can be implemented externally. |
Compared with ISL9111EH33Z-T, TPS61200DRCT offers lower startup voltage but omits UVLO and fault reporting, while MAX8815AETE+T delivers higher current but lacks the integrated FAULT pin - making ISL9111EH33Z-T uniquely balanced for space-constrained, safety-aware portable electronics requiring both battery protection and system-level fault visibility.

FAQ
What is the minimum input voltage required for ISL9111EH33Z-T to start up?
The ISL9111EH33Z-T has a typical minimum startup voltage of 0.8V, verified under load conditions (RLOAD = 50Ω). This allows reliable operation from single-cell alkaline, NiCd, or NiMH batteries even when deeply discharged. The device remains functional down to 0.7V input due to its UVLO threshold, after which it shuts down to protect rechargeable cells.
Does ISL9111EH33Z-T include output disconnect during shutdown?
Yes, ISL9111EH33Z-T provides true output disconnect during shutdown: when the EN pin is driven low, both internal MOSFETs turn off and the body diode polarity is reversed, blocking current flow from VIN to VOUT. This feature prevents battery drain in standby, critical for long-shelf-life medical and sensor applications.
What protection features does ISL9111EH33Z-T offer?
ISL9111EH33Z-T integrates thermal shutdown (150°C trip, 25°C hysteresis), short-circuit protection (immediate shutdown if VOUT falls below VIN), and UVLO (shuts down at 0.7V). It does not include overvoltage protection - that feature is exclusive to the adjustable (ADJ) versions. Fault conditions assert the open-drain FAULT pin low.
Can ISL9111EH33Z-T be used with a 5V output requirement?
No - ISL9111EH33Z-T is a fixed 3.3V output variant. For 5V output, use ISL9111EH50Z-T (same package and specs, but factory-trimmed to 5.0V ±100mV). The 3.3V and 5.0V versions share identical pinout, startup behavior, and protection features, differing only in internal voltage reference.
What is the quiescent current of ISL9111EH33Z-T in skip mode?
The ISL9111EH33Z-T draws 20µA typical quiescent current from VOUT in skip mode at +25°C, rising to 45µA maximum across the −20°C to +85°C operating range. This ultra-low current enables multi-week battery life in always-on portable devices such as wireless sensors and hearing aids.
